Why do more hydrothermal resources exist in the western regions of the United States?

There are more hydrothermal resources in the Western regions of the United States because the there are temperatures hot enough to be useful as a geothermal resource located at depths too far below the surface. This is why this area became a prime target for the development of geothermal energy resources.

I hope it helps, Regards.

The reason why more hydrothermal resources exist in western regions of the united states is because : Lack of groundwater and extended drought has reduced number of vents. 
That's why to fulfill its their daily water consumption, they need to rely on hydrothermal resources

hope this helps
